There are places that don't just welcome you, they change you, and Costa Rica is one of them. Costa Rica Vida takes readers beneath the jungle canopy of this wild, untamed land, where biodiversity is staggering, the coastlines are unspoiled, and a "Pura Vida" philosophy permeates every aspect of daily life. Structured as a deeply personal journey, the book moves chronologically through a writer's encounter with this small but extraordinary nation, capturing the tension between its ancient wilderness and its contemporary vitality.
